Create your profile. Include as much information about your skills, education and experience as possible. You may be asked for more information later on in the process, but you want to make sure you make this as clear and as detailed as possible.

You may be asked to finish the application on the employer's website. If that's the case, you will be redirected to their website where you will have to fill out some more information to complete the application.

Wait to hear from the employer. Don’t forget to check your email and voicemail regularly.

If you do not hear from employers within seven to 10 business days, you may contact them directly on your own. See: How can I contact employers?

Having a profile that's 100% complete helps improve your chances of getting a job. If your profile is marked as incomplete, that's most likely because some details are missing from your preferences, work history or education sections. To get your profile to 100%, follow the simple steps below:

We can't give you an exact answer because Snagajob is not involved in employers' hiring decisions. There are many possible reasons for your application being rejected:

There's a lot of competition for jobs right now.

Your skills and work experience may not have been exactly what the employer was looking for.

Are there blanks in your online profile? Employers like to have as much information about you as possible.

You may have made a spelling mistake. While this sounds like a small thing, employers tell us that this is the number one mistake that job seekers make. Check out this video, where we give you three ways you can make sure your applications are in top shape.

Q. I didn’t update my profile before submitting an application. Can I change my application now?

We always encourage job seekers to keep their profiles updated with new skills and experience. Unfortunately, once you apply to a company, you cannot re-apply for 35 days. This is because our employers do not wish to receive more than one profile per job seeker.

Keep in mind, if you were sent to the employer's website to apply, you may be able to log into their system to make the changes. Your best bet would be to check their website first before you try to contact them directly.

If you wish, you may contact the employer on your own, explain your situation and provide your updated information.

Q. Why do I have to go to the employer’s website to finish applying for a job?

Some of the employers who advertise jobs on our site require job seekers to apply on their company website. When you click Apply Now on Snagajob, you may be sent to another site to finish the application process. Don’t skip this step! If you do not fully complete the application process, you won’t be considered for the job.

If you have computer problems or other difficulties finishing the application process on the employer’s site, come back to Snagajob, sign in, and go to My Account. Scroll to the bottom of the page to view your applications.Look for the title of the job you're trying to apply to and click Application at employer site to finish this application. Keep in mind that this link will take you directly to the employer's application process and you may be asked to include some information included on your Snagajob profile.

Q. Can I apply for a job through Snagajob if I don’t have an email address?

You need an email address to use Snagajob, but the good news is that it’s free, quick and easy to get your own email address. Gmail, Yahoo both allow you to create free email accounts. Just be sure to pick an email name that’s in good taste and professional - employers may not call you if your email is partygurl23@email.com.

The employers on our site have asked us not to give out their contact information. To contact an employer, we suggest using your local directory, going directly to the employer’s website, or using an Internet search engine to find contact information for the location you applied to. Most of our employers list their address on our website, so you will be able to use that to guide your search.

Some employers post the hourly wages they offer in their job descriptions, while others choose to discuss that information in the interview. If the job you're interested in has no wages listed, our Salary Calculator can give you an idea of what you can expect to make.

You should be living and residing in the United States in order to apply for any of the jobs posted on our website. Keep in mind that the employers are looking for employees who can come in for an interview and start work immediately.

Q. An employer I applied to told me they’re not accepting applications. Why is the job on your site?

Because of the high turnover rate in hourly jobs, some of our employers choose to list their job openings with Snagajob year-round in order to build a talent pool of potential candidates. These employers are constantly hiring new workers - however, they may not be hiring in your area at the exact moment you're looking for a job. This video explains in more detail.

What does this mean to you? If you apply to a job and then the employer tells you they’re not interviewing now, be patient. We hear from job seekers that they get hired weeks, even months after applying. The employer has your application filed away and may contact you when positions open back up. In the meantime, please check Snagajob regularly, because we add new jobs every day.
